The quality of the dishes at the restaurant is excellent. The sour and refreshing ume juice is tasty, and the braised pork rice and scallop chicken thigh soup received high praise.

[Foodholic Niko @ Taipei]
Every time I feel unwell and want to drink hot soup, I think of Shuangyue!
"Shuangyue Food Company Jinan Branch" is located near Shandao Temple Station, about a 6-minute walk from Exit 4. There used to be a Qingdao branch in the area, but it has already suspended operations.
Clam Stewed Chicken Leg Soup
This is the soup I always order. The broth is incredibly delicious! Because it includes clams, there's a strong taste of the sea and a natural saltiness. Highly recommended! In addition to the three large pieces of chicken leg meat, there’s also plenty of cabbage and clams. The whole bowl is packed with ingredients, so if you’re a girl with a smaller appetite, this bowl would probably fill you up.
Love and Hate Spicy Sesame Noodles
This is a mix of sesame sauce and spicy pepper sauce, and the ratio is just perfect. The flavors complement each other well. I personally love the spicy flavor, and the noodles are wonderfully chewy. Definitely worth trying!
Black Truffle Noodles
The truffle flavor is quite prominent, and it comes with crispy garlic to add depth. It’s tasty, but I still think the signature Love and Hate Spicy Sesame Noodles are more enjoyable.
Wind-blown Braised Dishes
Today I ordered tofu and sliced tofu skins. If you don’t like ginger, remember to mention it beforehand. I’ve always found Shuangyue’s braised dishes to be fairly average, and today I still think they’re just okay.
Blanched Cabbage
It has fried shallots on top, which I like, but towards the end, I found it a bit oily.
113/2/5 (Monday) Lunch
We arrived around 11:45 and had to wait 15 minutes for a seat.
The store also uses anti-epidemic partitions, so you may sit at the same table as others
Highly recommend the Umei juice in the store $50
You read that right, it’s called Ume juice.
It’s sour and delicious (but it’s really often sold out😭)
⚠️General things to note⚠️:
- You will probably have to wait for more than half an hour during lunch and dinner peak hours (12:00, 18:00)
After I finished my lunch, there was a huge crowd when I came out (about 12:40) - When you arrive, be sure to draw a number plate first. Don’t wait for the service staff to ask.
- The entire venue uses the QR Code to scan and order food (or press it at the checkout machine), and always check out at the self-service checkout machine on the right side of the door.
👌🏻General experience👌🏻:
- While waiting outside, the staff will first guide you to scan the QR Code to order food online (reduce the boring time of waiting)
- While waiting, the staff will also serve burdock tea for us to drink first (ice🧊)
- The self-service area in the store provides refill plates, not sharing bowls. Please let us know if you want to share the food, ask the service staff to get the bowls🙏
- Sometimes you will encounter a store clerk asking you to scan a QR code and fill in a Google review and you will be given a pack of noodles (approximately one serving per person)
(This is why Google has so many ratings and reviews⋯)
🍴Dining experience🍴:
- Braised pork rice $40
This is the first time I have eaten braised pork rice with a lot of colloids and distinct rice grains.
The braised pork part is fat meat cut into long strips
But no! often! soft! Tender! It’s fat that doesn’t make people feel sick.
Overall it’s not too oily and very smooth.
When eating braised pork rice, you can enjoy it with the cabbage in the soup.
Not only can it relieve greasiness, but it can also add a different flavor
Conclusion: 🌟5/5, lots of gelatin, clear rice, and enough portion. If you don’t like fatty meat, please avoid it.
2.Alpine Cabbage$40
Very crispy and not too oily
For a portion of 40 yuan, I think it’s quite enough.
If you don’t like shallots, scallions, and shredded ginger, please make a separate note📝
Verdict: 🌟3/5, very crispy cabbage
❗️If you already have some soup, there is no need to order another dish (it will be too much)❗️
-
Scallop and chicken leg soup $230
One of the store’s signboards
There are a lot of scallops and cabbage
The soup is very sweet (it really has the most authentic sweetness😋)
A chicken leg is a whole chicken leg
The skin of the pork belly is very soft and tender, with a lot of gum.
The flavor of the meat will not be lost just because it is cooked in the soup.
If you feel it’s too monotonous, you can also pair it with the spicy soy sauce from the store.
Basically, you will feel very full after drinking a bowl of soup.
Conclusion: 🌟5/5, fresh, sweet and delicious soup, the store’s signature -
Yuanqi Forrest Gump Peeled and Lean Meat Soup $110
As a girl who is picky about food and loves spicy food (I don’t eat chicken)
It was my first time to try peeled pepper lean meat soup and I fell in love with it as soon as I drank it.
The soup also retains the freshness and sweetness of cabbage and peeled peppers.
The taste is slightly spicy, but it won’t be too spicy to drink.
Peeled peppers will not be boiled until they become rotten or flattened. You can still taste the shredded peppers when you eat them.
If the pork slices soup is served, you should eat it as soon as possible, otherwise it will become very old🤣
Although the portion is smaller than an ordinary round soup bowl,
But a bowl is enough for girls!
Conclusion: 🌟5/5, if you like peeled pepper soup but don’t want to eat chicken legs, you must order it❤️ -
Braised braised meat - shredded kelp $30, sweet or spicy $30
When I ate here before, I always had kelp flakes (sliced).
This is the first time to eat this kind of kelp shreds⋯very disappointing
The marinade has no flavor.
Kelp shreds and marinade are completely two entities
If the menu changes to kelp flakes, I will definitely order it!
On the contrary, sweet or spicy performance is very good
Full marks for Q degree as always
There is just the right balance between the marinade and the sweetness but not the spiciness.
It doesn’t taste too salty. It’s just right to eat with braised pork rice🎉
Conclusion: Shredded kelp 🌟1/5, tasteless, just change it back to kelp slices and order more
Sweet or not spicy 🌟5/5, a must order, braised just right and soft Q
